Jon Cryer tells the truth about his career

Jon Cryer was bitten by the acting bug early, and achieved success with his starring turn in John Hughes' "Pretty in Pink." But there was a long period before he had a hit again with "Two and a Half Men," one of the most successful sitcoms ever. Cryer talks about his new memoir with correspondent Ben Tracy.

    After considering a multitude of comedic actors, Crier got the role. Let's face facts shall we? ANYONE with comedic talent could have easily followed Charlie's extrodindany talents in Comedy, acting, etc. Jon played a supporting role, as did the other cast members of 21/2 men. Rather than reach out a helping hand when a friend is in need...Jon chose to take an entirely different approach...writing a "Tell All book" about Charlie Sheen. Backfired big-time Jon!! Sheen FANS were and still are infuriated with the back stabbing, unmitigated lack of ethics, taking advantage of his colleagues misfortune!! Hanging onto as much of the Media Spotlight from a fellow human beings downfall. Wasn't a manager employed by Jon who should have perhaps mentioned that this was so wrong Dear Jon on so many levels??? Hmmmm? Are you WINNING JON?? TLC

We watch reruns of this show daily and have for years. We can say the lines before the characters do, we have watched so many times. Regardless, it's the characters exceptional talent and delivery that makes it funny again and again. As long as the reruns are showing we will watch them. You rock John Cryer!

    Anne Liesveld Martin Sheen is 79 now and Charlie is 54 not a young buck either but his dad has lived a long life but Martin almost died back in 1978 when suffered a massive heart attack during filming of his movie apocalypse now. Martin Sheen is healthier now as he was a severe alcoholic and used drugs in his younger years.

    In his book, Jon actually mentioned that he hung out with James Spader, mostly.

    It doesn't shock me, as Ringwald was full of herself and she wanted Robert Downey Jr to played Ducky because she had the hots for Robert even though Cryer was perfect for the role

    Such an appealing, natural guy and a great comedy actor. I fell in love with him way back in Pretty in Pink. Thank you, Jon.x

    As far as being mistaken for Matthew Broderick, everybody likes Ducky better than Ferris Bueler.

    I find it hysterical that he played Lex Luthor's nephew in Superman 4 and than so much later play Lex himself on Supergirl. He did a great job on that.

    I guess I am one of the few who really appreciated the show when they focused more on the neurosis of Jon Cryer's character, Alan. I thought it grew funnier.

    What a nice guy. It must have difficult dealing with Charlie when he went into meltdown, but they go way back and were in Hotshots together before 2 and a half men, so it was nice he was just concerned for him and not looking to bad mouth him or anything like that, eventho Charlie was rude to him.

    Jon Cryer is one of the best actors that we've ever seen on TV. I think Sheen actually learned a lot about timing and delivery from watching Jon. He's a phenom on stage too.

(For the first time)I applaud J.C. for doing this interview & look fwd to re-watching Pretty In Pink eventually.On a side note, a big thank you for the homeless cottages you and your wife funded. God bless y’all.
